We construct partial category-valued field theories in (2+1)-dimensions using Lagrangian Floer theory in moduli spaces of central-curvature unitary connections with fixed determinant of rank r and degree d where r,d are coprime positive integers. These theories associate to a closed, connected, oriented surface the Fukaya category of the moduli space, and to a connected bordism between two surfaces a functor between the Fukaya categories. We obtain the latter by combining Cerf theory with holomorphic quilt invariants.
We use quilted Floer theory to construct functor-valued invariants of tangles arising from moduli spaces of flat bundles on punctured surfaces. As an application, we show the non-triviality of certain elements in the symplectic mapping class groups of moduli spaces of flat bundles on punctured spheres.
We study threefolds $Y$ fibred by $A_m$-surfaces over a curve $S$ of positive genus. An ideal triangulation of $S$ defines, for each rank $m$, a quiver $Q(Delta_m)$, hence a $CY_3$-category $(C,W)$ for any potential $W$ on $Q(Delta_m)$. We show that for $omega$ in an open subset of the Kahler cone, a subcategory of a sign-twisted Fukaya category of $(Y,omega)$ is quasi-isomorphic to $(C,W_{[omega]})$ for a certain generic potential $W_{[omega]}$. This partially establishes a conjecture of Goncharov concerning `categorifications of cluster varieties of framed $PGL_{m+1}$-local systems on $S$, and gives a symplectic geometric viewpoint on results of Gaiotto, Moore and Neitzke.
In all known explicit computations on Weinstein manifolds, the self-wrapped Floer homology of non-compact exact Lagrangian is always either infinite-dimensional or zero. We show that a global variant of this observed phenomenon holds in broad generality: the wrapped Fukaya category of any positive-dimensional Weinstein (or non-degenerate Liouville) manifold is always either non-proper or zero, as is any quotient thereof. Moreover any non-compact connected exact Lagrangian is always either a (both left and right) non-proper object or zero in such a wrapped Fukaya category, as is any idempotent summand thereof. We also examine criteria under which the argument persists or breaks if one drops exactness, which is consistent with known computations of non-exact wrapped Fukaya categories which are smooth, proper, and non-vanishing (e.g., work of Ritter-Smith).
We introduce a class of Liouville manifolds with boundary which we call Liouville sectors. We define the wrapped Fukaya category, symplectic cohomology, and the open-closed map for Liouville sectors, and we show that these invariants are covariantly functorial with respect to inclusions of Liouville sectors. From this foundational setup, a local-to-global principle for Abouzaids generation criterion follows.
In this paper, we discuss Floer homology of Lagrangian submanifolds in an open symplectic manifold given as the complement of a smooth divisor. Firstly, a compactification of moduli spaces of holomorphic strips in a smooth divisor complement is introduced. Next, this compactification is used to define Lagrangian Floer homology of two Lagrangians in the divisor complement. The main new feature of this paper is that we do not make any assumption on positivity or negativity of the divisor.
